Hm... I actually thought that it *was* possible to make it work like "
document.body.style.backgroundColor="#FF000";" but that was just based on a
brief conversation I had with someone who seemed to understand Rhino better
than me.

I guess what I was getting at though was that when I'm looking at one of
the model objects it should look like it's as simple as the equivalent JSON
object, and it probably doesn't need a lot more than that in the way of
capabilities.

McQ.

I have never understood what scripting has to do with whether we use
EMF/WrappedHashMaps/... . I might be wrong but as far as I have used
JVM-Scripting technologies something like this:

---------8<---------
document.body.style.backgroundColor="#FF000";
---------8<---------

is not possible and has too look like this:

---------8<---------
document.getBody().getStyle().setBackgroundColor("#FF000");
---------8<---------

As far as I remember the cool thing about the browser scripting engines
is that there's an event fired when a field is set.
